However, such a game-changing moment sparks a multitude of new questions.
Now that thats complete, what are her top priorities?
Jacobs return will also, no doubt, change the Landry family dynamic significantly.

Can Del (Andie MacDowell) finally live happily ever after now that her son is home sweet home?
And then, of course, theres Kats long-awaited romance with Elliot (Evan Williams).
In mid-November, I was lucky enough to get to visit the Toronto-based set of the show.

What Are Kats Top Priorities in Season 3?
And is one of them Elliot?
There are a lot of different years and eras this season.
I asked Leigh if we’d see that rock the boat for the pair in Season 3.
She laughed and noted, You already know the answer to that question.
It definitely rocks the boat.

However, thats not the only hurdle Kat and Elliot will have to overcome as a couple.
How Will Kat and Del Handle Jacobs Return?
Speaking of Del, shes about to have her world rocked in the biggest way imaginable.

Her son, whos been missing since 1999, is home.
So that’s one thing for Del, in particular, is not seeing him as a little boy.
She just has her Andie cackle, which is just this amazing, infectious laugh.
I’ve always admired her career.
MacDowell isnt the only one upping her game in Season 3 in a very special way.
Leigh herself has seen her craft as an actor evolve right alongside Kats arc in the show.
I had a scene, actually on Friday night.
I was able to, like I was complimenting Andie on, switch expression and feeling.
This is about to be really serious.
I mean, I know I can do it, but there was an ease to it.
I can connect that much.
And that, for me, was a big accomplishment.
